We are selling it below our cost instead of throwing them away. There are very limited quantities, and they are being sold as-is. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eThe reason for the V2 version we are currently shipping:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eIn SOME R1Ts across Gen1 and Gen2, there is a thick swatch of hard insulation where the box rests. With the tight tolerances, this pushed the subwoofer in to the bottom of the seat. In V2, we accounted for this by creating a ring so that the subwoofer could sit flush with the top of the box. V2 also creates more space for those without the insulation, and adds some cotton batting to account for the slightly reduced volume of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eWe highly recommend that you check under your subwoofer to see whether or not you have the insulation there (it will look like a shmear of black paint) PRIOR to ordering. If you order this and it doesn't work for you, we WILL allow returns, but you WILL pay shipping both ways (~$50 in most cases).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"\u003eWith that out of the way...
